Free MINI Cooper... grill

I replaced my 2003 non S grill with the black Aero grill using instructions from this site. If you want the stock chrome for the upper and lower grills, just pay the shipping and they are yours. The plastic threaded posts are probably stripped, but slightly smaller diameter self-tapping nuts (get them at Lowes) will do the trick. I broke one upper grill post during removal. The lower grill suffered a blister in the chrome due to flexion. All said and done, not bad for free.

Going once, going twice, going chicken noodle soup with rice...


I guess I'll hang onto it for a while. I was thinking about blacking out the slats...
